Magnus Weideman was born in Hamburg, Germany, in 1880. In a short biographical letter he composed on his 75th birthday, he wrote that he always wanted to be an artist, but that it was not for him an option. He studied theology instead. After serving in the Red Cross during WWI, he finally began writing, painting and taking photos. He was a follower of the Naturist movement, and his nude photographic portraits are these days quite sought after. We recognized this as one of his images, having sold another (which, unlike this one, was attributed), in this same series, and find the repeating geometrical pattern in the flooring in contrast with the soft curves of the model's body, the sun's rays contrasting with the shadows, well...it's just wonderful. A wonderful find. The card does show some wear.

Postage is for first class shipping in a secure photo mailer, and we happily combine shipping on all paper goods. If you purchase two cards, we will refund the postage on the second card, and when you purchase three or more cards from us at the same time, your shipping will be entirely free, except for international orders which, because of sudden increases in international shipping rates will still be charged one card's shipping fees on orders of three or more.
And please come visit our blog at:

where we post biographical and historical tidbits, images of cards and photographs for sale, some already sold but remembered fondly, related images of historical interest and sometimes even images of items that have not yet arrived in the shop, but that are expected to arrive soon, as well as coupon codes, links to other related sites, and more!
***Our apologies to our wonderful international customers for the sudden increase in shipping costs. We have been advised that our international postal rates have pretty much doubled, so until we see what's what, we're charging 8.00 dollars for 1st class shipping in a rigid photo mailer. But we're not interested in making a profit with our shipping fees, and we will refund any amount left over beyond our cost.
